Emilio: Several factors you need to take into account and your process parameters will depend on: Solder Alloy, Is there any Fine Pitch?; BGA?; Smaller chip size?. Tipically you should go for controls in: Solder Temperature and viscosity; blade and s

Hi dave, Thanks for the input. your valuable feedback always help. which method is better Spindle or T-bar. IPC TM 650 have are considered as standard methods. 1. T bar 2. Spindle. since we have never used it. we are bit confused. Which would be

The paste dispensers work well as long as the humidity in your shop is properly controlled. If it gets too humid, and the paste gets "soupy", then it will take less air pressure to dispense it onto the stencil. Paste dispensers use a controlled, pre-

yes this paste is a pain in the paste.... there are very few reasons for solderballs, component to pad ratio and placement.... solder paste control, using a mixer, not hand mixing, checking viscosity and temp..... or simply and bad profile and your

We are now using solder paste(OM325) and I have some problems on the folowing process: 1. We use the solder paste softer(Malcom SP-1) to warm-up for 20 mins, when it just take from refrigerator. Is there any problems for solderpaste performance? 2.

Hi All, I am retrofitting a machine with a solder paste dispenser head, and am trying to decide what direction to go, with a dispense valve. The choices I know are either a standard Air over, or some kind of positive displacement valve such as a sc

Here's some quick things to look for: 1. Does your solder paste feel like concrete, does it roll-up into your squeegee blades, and stick to your stencil? If so, your problem is the solder paste. The mixture of powder and flux, or metal load is ou

Hi, I had a question from our ISO guy asking me how I know that the paste we use is in good condition? The problem is that he saw our operator put some old paste back in a empty jar to reuse it the next day. So his question is how do you know the

I have over 10 years experience in aerospace materials, part of which was involved with vacuum casting inert propellant formulations. These propellants are in the range of 80 - 90% solids loaded with viscosities of 15 kP. I'm not sure where I could

usual solder cream has a viscosity above 800 000pas at 25�C for each 1�C the viscosity change about 30 000 pas at 15�C you will have nothing ( 37% of viscosity less)on your board...
